Thanks David, glad we're all back.

Why would we want a screen covered with fingerprints when we are doing image editing?

Probably the last one, as the sinuous shape of the land continues to the right more strongly. The mistiness is still there as well, so I think that makes it the strongest of the set.

Yes, it's a tough subject to make something new from and you've succeeded very well.

I delete nothing. Sometimes I go back and look at images and they are much better than I thought at the time. maybe first time around I'm not in the mood for them, and later I am.

Any image, even a blurred one, just might have a use at some point in a composite image. Once deleted, that choice is no longer there.

It may be that you need to turn off any adblocker but certainly try Chrome or some other browser and see if that does the trick. Clearly people are posting successfully so the problem isn't universal.

I don't know why Peter, but it's usually something simple that's going wrong. Comment Image

I've just tried the process now and it seems fine. Perhaps use a different browser? The above image is 1000 pixels wide and less than 400K in size.

It should be fine, but it must be a JPEG image and not too big. I use 1000 pixels wide and the forum changes this to fit, but it doesn't seem to noticeably degrade quality.

Could it be that your file size is too large?

are all the cheap plastic versions the same with no contacts etc?
They are not plastic and certainly don't seem cheap in the sense of badly made. The one I bought, for about £40 I think, seems to be made of brass, is finished very well and the bayonet is smooth as silk. If you can get one that has a variable aperture that would be helpful.
